Not entirely surprising, Team Dignitas have decided to let Christian 'I Will Dominate' Rivera go after he received a one-year ban from Riot.
As we reported on December 4th, Rivera got punished for his "toxic behavior" in public games and his frequent appearances on The Tribunal. The result was a one year ban from Season 3 Championship games, which put Dignitas in the position of having no jungler.
Yesterday, Dignitas manager ODEE reported that Rivera will no longer be part of the team (statement below). His role in the jungle will be taken by Crumbzz (who used to jungle for Curse.na before transferring to Dignitas) and the team will thus go on the look for a new top laner.
- "Due to the ruling from Riot Games that I Will Dominate can no longer compete in Season3, he unfortunately has to leave our League of Legends team. We have accepted I Will Dominate's apology but of course we cannot condone any behaviour from our players such as what he was banned for. We will look for a replacement and will announce that in due course, our commitment to League has not changed and our team will continue into Season 3."
